Ads for restaurants and cafes.

A dish photo becomes the week: a feed post for Friday's special, a story, a Google Business Profile post, a short email to regulars and a two-size Meta ad set, all in your brand and in the languages your neighbourhood speaks. Alcohol posts get the age gate and country notes automatically. From $9 a month, priced per run.

A Friday-special ad: hand-rolled pasta and a glass of red on a worn table.

Made for date-night couples. Generated in Tadka for Olive & Ash, shown as generated.

87% of diners read the reviews before they book.

Which means the ad's job is to make the food and the room worth checking out in the first place. Appetite first, then the review does the rest.

$30a day is what a restaurant's Meta ads typically run at

A review card that asks for reviews

Been in this week?Leave Olive & Ash a review. It takes a minute and it means a lot.

Friday brings a readout in plain sentences: what went out, what it cost, what came back, what to change.

Type what you would write. Watch what gets caught.

This is the same check that runs under every brief in the studio. It knows the words that get restaurants and cafes ads rejected, says why, and offers the line that passes.

For wine, beer and cocktails Tadka adds the age gate note on publish and lists the countries where Meta bans alcohol ads (Turkey, Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Egypt among them). Health claims about dishes are flagged too. It flags common issues; it is not a legal review.

1 phrase would get this flagged.

  • wineAlcohol ads need an age gate (18 to 25 depending on the country) and are banned in Turkey, Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Egypt among others.

    Instead: Set the minimum age for each market when publishing and exclude the countries that ban alcohol ads.

    Meta Advertising Standards: Alcohol

This flags common issues before the platform does. It is not a legal review, and in the studio it never blocks a run.

The week without this.

Nothing here is a guess. It is what restaurants and cafes tell us the week actually costs.

Specials change weekly, and posting eats the hour before service.
Meta ads for restaurants run at $15 to $30 a day; the photo has to stop the scroll on a phone.
Delivery apps, Google, Instagram and Facebook each want a different size of the same dish.

Audiences that sound like your customers.

Pick one and the whole set is tuned to them. Segment-level angles, never individual targeting. Three of them already have an ad above.

Friday-night families

Parents with kids who want an easy dinner out, a kids menu and no wait.

Office lunch crowd

Works nearby, has forty minutes, wants speed and a combo price.

Date-night couples

Thursday to Saturday, wants atmosphere, a special dish and a reservation link.

See the friday special ad above.
Delivery regulars

Orders on an app twice a week, moves on a new item or a free-delivery window.

Group and event bookers

Planning a birthday or office party, wants a set menu and a private room.

Weekend brunch friends

Groups of three to five who tolerate a wait if the plates are worth it.

See the weekend brunch ad above.

Questions we get.

Can it post to Instagram and Google for me?

Meta ads publish from Tadka as a paused campaign you switch on. Instagram organic and Google Business Profile posts are handed to you as image plus caption until those APIs are approved for Tadka.

Can the words on the image be in another language?

Yes. Pick the language of the ad and the headline on the image is rendered in it, with correct accents and right-to-left Arabic.

How much does a week cost?

Planning is free. Making the six images for the week is about six credits on the matrix, and every run shows its price before you click. Starter is $9 a month.

Your first 5 ads are free.
